Mary Kay founder Mary Kay Ash invented the exclusive "Mary Kay Pink Pearl" Cadillac in 1968, when she bought a Caddy at a Dallas car dealership and had it painted a pale pink to match her company's lip and eye palette.

“Mary Kay Ash always said, ‘Picture every person with an invisible sign around their neck that says Make Me Feel Important,’” said Adkins-Green. “This will be my mantra as I take on this exciting new role.”
